The Mean Green will face its fourth nationally ranked opponent of the season
COLLEGE STATION, Texas – UNT softball visits No. 5 Texas A&M at Davis Diamond Wednesday at 6 p.m. on ESPN+.
The Mean Green (22-10, 5-4 AAC) tallied its first American Athletic Conference sweep Sunday over Memphis. Utility Tatum Sparks recorded a trio of multi-hit games against the Tigers and earned a weekly AAC Honorable Mention selection Monday.
The Aggies (26-5, 6-3 SEC) collected its second SEC series win over then-No. 24 Alabama with a 9-7 comeback victory Sunday. North Texas has 12 comeback wins this season and is tied for the fourth-most in Division I while Texas A&M is tied for sixth with 11 come-from-behind victories.
Cierra Simon finished 2-for-3 with two singles at Texas A&M on March 6, 2024, while Skylar Savage appeared as a reliever in both games of a home-and-home series against the Aggies in 2024.
In the second meeting of the year, then-redshirt freshman Kayleigh Smith held the Aggies scoreless over the final two innings on April 17, 2024. The Mean Green fell in each game last season and last defeated the Aggies on Feb. 9, 2019.
